Not sure if this is a #parkselfie or a #beachselfie ? The park is behind me while my feet are on the beach. 🤷‍♀️ A friend took a pic of my new haircut styled by the strong winds. #summerfunbucketlist week 1 @StayCurious @4thhouseontheleft

Butterfinger So cute. 4y
cozypunk @Butterfinger thanks! My friend couldn't get over how the wind styled my 'do. 4y
Nute Such a cute photo of you! Your haircut is looking very stylish! 4y

It‘s really old and not a local park. It‘s also not a selfie, but thinking outside the box here‘s my “ #parkselfie “ for #summerfun week 1 bucket list. We were in Rocky Mountain National Park and it was the week before Memorial Day. I would love love love to go back and spend more than the 2.5 days we had. (Also, I did not build the snow bear-he was already there).

I really enjoyed Wild River. No, not as much as Maine‘s first, House Between Tides (I see I‘m not alone in this feeling!) but the historical settings in Scotland, Chicago, and particularly the wilds of Canada, were terrific. It does take awhile to get going, but the second half of the book goes much faster than the first. Romance, adventure, family strife, twists and turns . . . No. 2 of 4 books for #JoysofJune.

Murray keeps watch while I read!

StayCurious This looks like it is in a park, so I'm counting it as your #parkselfie, and also reading outside for a square on #SummerFun bingo. Yay! Two entries for the prizes! 5y

kspenmoll So pretty!!! 5y
Graciouswarriorprincess @kspenmoll Thanks. I work on the American Tobacco Campus which is beautiful but some days it is nice to walk three blocks away to this park. 😃 5y
Lcsmcat Love your mask! 5y

Graciouswarriorprincess @Lcsmcat Thanks! I hope that you are staying safe. It‘s getting crazy here in NC! 5y
Lcsmcat @Graciouswarriorprincess It is, and a little scary. My Council went back to in-person meetings in June. We “encourage” masks, but half the council and the Mayor don‘t wear them. Last week we had a public hearing and way too many people showed up, I had to swear 30 of them in. While most were masked, I still felt very uncomfortable with the crowd. It was a 4 1/2 hour meeting and while I marked the seats to try to keep social distancing 👇🏻 5y
Lcsmcat people removed the tape and sat next to each other, and we were all breathing the same air. 5y
Graciouswarriorprincess @Lcsmcat Oh my, that is scary! The Oracle Morrisville office has been chosen as the pilot office for reopening for the US. I am not happy about it! My team will take turns being there since Durham is still closed. Being immune compromised, living with John who is 71 and my son having Crohn‘s Disease, I am so afraid! My manager thinks that this is just not that bad either so he doesn‘t help my anxiety level. Please stay safe!! Hugs! (edited) 5y
Lcsmcat @Graciouswarriorprincess Thanks. You too. At least Durham and Raleigh are requiring masks. 5y
Graciouswarriorprincess @Lcsmcat We have been here in Durham since March. Wake county isn‘t going to enforce mask wearing. I am sheltering at home until the office opens. Stay safe too! 5y
Jeg Just read your exchange and it does sound scary. We have relatives just over the border from you in Sth Carolina. They have been back at work for a while. Bosses don‘t think it‘s that bad! Here in Western Australia we have no community transmission and though borders will stay closed we are getting back to normal without the scary feelings. 5y
Graciouswarriorprincess @Jeg Thanks! Glad that you are safe and life is getting back to normal for you. Hugs! 5y
alisiakae @graciouswarriorprincess and @lcsmcat Stay safe! I am so thankful that Gov Cooper finally mandated masks in NC. 5y
Lcsmcat @4thhouseontheleft Me too! 🤞🏻that it brings our numbers down. (edited) 5y
alisiakae @Lcsmcat I hope so too. Where numbers currently stand, I don't see school going back in August. And I really NEED my kid to go back to school. Hubby is a surgeon, and we have one hospital in Charlotte that has had to stop all non-emergency cases again, due to overcapacity. I think we're at 97%z bed capacity right now in Mecklenburg County. Things arent good, and I hope enough people adhere to the 3 W's to make a difference. 5y
Lcsmcat @4thhouseontheleft That is scary. I hope your husband stays safe. We‘re not that close to capacity in Wake, but we have an over abundance of hospitals between Rex, UNC, and Duke. 5y
Graciouswarriorprincess @4thhouseontheleft @Lcsmcat I am glad about the mask mandate as well. @4thhouseontheleft Oh my, I hope that your husband stays safe as well as your family. I think ladies that we are in the two hot spots for NC. Hoping that we all continue to stay safe! Sending hugs! 5y
Lcsmcat @Graciouswarriorprincess @4thhouseontheleft I‘m pondering how to respond to Alamance, Sampson, and Beaufort county sheriff‘s saying they won‘t enforce. Given what I see here, some letters to County Commissioners and Chambers of Commerce might be needed. 5y
Graciouswarriorprincess @Lcsmcat How awful!! I really don‘t understand how they can not enforce this as it protects lives. @4thhouseontheleft @Lcsmcat I just got a call from my doctor‘s office for my online appointment to get my medication for my Hashimoto‘s Disease. They are cutting down their hours in July to five hours a day. The nurse said they are doing this because of the current rise. Just stay safe!! Thank goodness for books and bookish friends!! Hugs! 5y
Graciouswarriorprincess @Lcsmcat @4thhouseontheleft Hurray!! I found out this morning that our office won‘t reopened until at least September due to the recent outbreaks! Please stay safe!! 5y
Lcsmcat @Graciouswarriorprincess That‘s great news! Take care of you and yours. ❤️ 5y
Graciouswarriorprincess @Lcsmcat Take care of yourself and your family. Stay safe and sending hugs! 5y

Today‘s #summerfun is in Downtown Durham. I work in downtown so I visit the parks over lunchtime. My favorite park is Downtown Park which has “Major”, the Bronze bull plus a sculpture garden. Then a quick trip half a mile away is the “Annie Savoy” house from Bull Durham. #safeselfie #parkselfie #downtownDurham

kspenmoll Sounds wonderful!!! 5y
Graciouswarriorprincess @kspenmoll Downtown Durham is lovely with the parks, restaurants and more! 😃 (edited) 5y

My #beachselfie and #parkselfie for #summerfun. Both of these pictures are from past trips before the pandemic. The beach is from a cruise four years ago and the park is a local park that puts on a huge light display for Christmas.

StayCurious Great pictures! 5y
